Some folks asked for my photos of the Stewiack train wreck. Attached are my most telling photos of the Stewiack train wreck. Being part of a railroad family, seeing this wreck was quite emotional. My grandfather was the conductor on the Toronto - Montreal Turbo run that burnt-out just outside of Alexandria Ontario in 1979. If you look carefully at Photo #21 you can see the back of the dining car completely under the roof of the old railway station that it hit. Cheers, Dan 86 Westy Bedford, Nova Scotia |
